Happy Homemaker Monday

I know I have been MIA for a while. I'm sorry, my laptop has died and I've been left with just my iPad. The iPad is a fun toy. A great way to surf the Internet, play games, and watch things on Netflix but not a great way to do anything of importance. We are getting my computer fixed, hopefully soon, but in the meantime I need to try to figure out how to make do with what I have. Try to hang in there with me as the iPad is not the easiest thing to use with blogger. 

Happy Homemaker Monday



The weather.....  80s and 90s with rain possibilities today. 

Right now I am....Sitting on my couch under a crochet blanket watching the end of the 4th Harry Potter with the monsters. 

Thinking....I have so much housework to catch up on since we had such a busy weekend. 

On my reading pile....Happy Housewives by Darla Shine, The Duggars: 20 and counting by Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar, and Then came you by Jennifer Weiner

On my TV.....Desperate Housewives and some things I have been neglecting on my DVR while I fold piles and piles of laundry.   
 
What I found while surfing the net....http://www.ordinarylifemagic.com/
Sorry for the incorrect way of linking. I just can't figure out how to use this app very well. Anyway, this blog is lots of fun she has beautiful pictures and lots of fun arts and crafts to do with the kids.
 
On the menu for this week....I'm not sure what we are cooking this week really. 

Monday - Some kind of Chinese chicken and a big veggie stir fry. 
Tuesday - Broccoli and potato frittata
Wednesday - 
Thursday - 
Friday - 
Saturday - 
Sunday - 

On my to do list....LAUNDRY!!!  Dishes, floors, bathrooms

In the craft basket....I have been working very hard on a big beautiful crochet blanket. I want to start quilting as well. I'm also working on some painting ideas. 

Looking forward to this week....Ben has blastball tomorrow night. It's so cute watching him play. 

Looking around the house....So much laundry is piled up to be folded or washed.  There's a few dishes in the sink that need to be washed and some recycling on the kitchen counter. I definitely have my work cut out for me today.  The kids are playing with Ben's Batman toys all over the living room floor. 
From the camera....
Shawn and his brother got the best Father's Day present from their parents. They got a once in a lifetime opportunity to fly in a B-17. 




On my prayer list.....Sandra and her family as they get ready to move to a new home in a new state. 
My husband as he travels this week. 
My brother and sister-in-laws while their daughter goes on a vacation to Texas with her Grandma. 

Bible verse, Devotional....She is clothed with strength an dignity, and laughs at the days to come.~Proverbs 31:25

Blogmas 2014 - Day 8 What Is On Your Wish List This Year

By
Oh my goodness, I'm really pretty easy to buy for.  I have pretty much everything a girl could want.  I mean of course I have a few things but I'm not really counting on anything because I already got a huge gift of the new car. I really love scarves, especially infinity scarves right now.  I'm beyond obsessed.   Fun gadgets, appliances, etc for my kitchen are always a win for me as well as cookbooks and decorations.  I'm so into all of it, and it's the best go to gift idea for me. A nice pair of rain boots or wellies.  I just bought some for all of my kids for Christmas, and I've been dying for my own for years. Vera Bradley!  I'm so in love with Vera Bradley.  I'd like a bigger purse, as well as a library tote bag. And honestly I've not asked for any of even these things because what I want more than anything else in the world, is our own house.  I want to buy a house for my kids to grow up in an...

Petty

By
This evening our sweet little Petty went to Kitty Heaven.  The cancer had spread to her brain, causing her to have odd behaviors.  The tumor in her mouth, or the side of her face, had pulled down her ear canal on that side and caused her eye to twitch, which the vet said caused constant vertigo.  The cancer had also spread to her intestines causing her to loose control of her bowels and bladder and she was bleeding internally.  While she didn't appear to be suffering, there is no way that she wasn't.  We sadly had to have her put down. Yes, I'm meowing at her in the video.  Sometimes she would answer when you would do that, but she would always come to you. She was such a cute little love bug.  I named her Perpetua, from the Bridget Jones movies, and later we shortened it to Petty, just because we are a family of nicknames.  I remember when we first got her and she was so tiny.  She looked like a lemur and she was all black with a cou...

The Weather::: Right now, it's 30 degrees.  It's supposed to get up to 40 today though. Right now I am: Sitting at the kitchen table with Scotland in my lap.  Rylie is playing with a remote control My Little Pony scooter toy on the kitchen floor. Thinking: How busy today is, what all I need to get done, and the walk I want to go on. On my reading pile::: Right now, I'm reading a book my sister-in-law loaned me called Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard On my tv::: I've got several shows to catch up on, just not sure how I'm going to fit TV in today.  Maybe during nap time. I've been really enjoying Super Store lately.  It really reminds me of The Office but in a Walmart type store.  It's nice to just laugh and laugh.  It's a lot easier to watch vlogs while I work on the iPad. Something fun to share::: This weekend we went to a birthday party for a little girl we've known for a couple of years and became friends with her family...
